  • Preheat oven to 375F.
  • Pack the stuffing tightly into 18 cupcake molds and bake for 20-25 minutes. Allow to slightly cool and flip onto a cooling rack carefully.

Mash:

  • Boil and peel 4 medium russet potatoes.
  • Mash them using a hand masher or potato ricer and set aside.
  • In a high speed blender combine the rest of the ingredients and blend until smooth.
  • Pour blender contents into the potato bowl and mash together until fully combined.
